back when I was a younger and slimmer Martha my radio had a lot of commercials. As much of a drag as commercials are, sometimes they help you find stuff you like. It was MY good fortune to hear an old favorite "One Misty Moisty Morning" that I knew sort of as a nursery rhyme sort of thing - well I heard it on a commercial in this rollicking arrangement and my ears just jumped for joy! This was the first time I heard Steeleye Span, when their wonderful "Parcel of Rogues" was new.
I think they made several wonderful albums and had a splendid way of rocking out while maintaining a very folksy, whimsical sort of air.
